What are the benefits of fearing walking in the fear of God? II

I greet you all in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ! I thank God for yet another day to soak our life with the word of God. We have been talking for some time now about the fear of God. Yesterday we saw some of the benefits of walking in the fear of God. Today I want to share more scriptures on the benefits of walking in the fear of God. This is to allow you to see that walking in the fear of God affects every area of our lives. Without the fear of God in a person’s life, he is headed for a defeated and wretched life. Here are some other benefits of fearing God:
  • God arranges for you to own property: 
“But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive. And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them houses” (Exodus 1:17,21)
  • Walking in the fear of God leads to your promotion in career 
”That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many” Nehemiah 7:2
  • Walking in the fear of God releases the goodness of God over your life in a city and protects you! 
“Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men! Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man; thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. Blessed be the LORD: for he hath showed me his marvelous kindness in a strong city” Psalm 31:19-21
  • Walking in the fear of God guarantees your provision in famine
There is no king saved by the multitude of a host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. A horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy, to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine” (Psalm 33: 16-19) “O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him” Psalm 34:9
  • Walking in the fear of God guarantees answers to your prayers 
“He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: He also will hear their cry, and will save them. Psalm 145:19 May the benefits of walking in the fear of God become more real to you from this day onward in Jesus Name!Till tomorrow, Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

Forgiveness gives us strength to walk through the stages of our life.& «Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.».

    «All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations…» (Mathew, 28:18-19).Jesus told us to walk through this life, being armed with the understanding that all God’s authority is behind us. The will of God for us contains prosperity, health, salvation (both for us personally and for our families), peace and harmony; the will of God is for all people to come to salvation and knowledge of truth. But too often we see discrepancies in many areas of our life. Those areas where the will of God is not fulfilled are actually ruled by the devil; somehow we have given him a place and control over these areas.
  • It is extremely important for us to grow in God’s character and nature so that we can effectively function on earth

    «It is an abomination for kings to commit wickedness, for a throne is established by righteousness» .In order for a throne or a reign or government to be established, it must be done by righteousness or truth. As we’ve said before, in Paul’s Epistle to Romans we are told that we rule on earth by the gift of righteousness (see Rom.5: 17).The Power, authority and wisdom to rule on earth come into our lives through our uncompromising stance against sin and unrighteousness. If we choose righteousness and total submission to God and His commandments as our lifestyle, then God can channel His authority into our lives; our life will be filled with God’s authority, and God will grant us the right to rule and reign on earth.
  • Calling forth convincing and irrefutable proof! II

    “The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles”(Psalm 34:17). God hears you when you cry out to Him and not when you sink in our despair and misery, when you grumble and ‘have pity parties’. There is a cry of faith, which God always hears, because He finds a call for help and intervention in it. In this prayer cry God sees faith in Righteous, Just, Loving and Almighty God.

    For several days we have been discussing the blessedness of ministry. We established that through ministry we become entitled for continuous flow of God’s mercy. Ministry to others always fills our lives with blessings. But we shouldn’t be motivated by the desire to get God’s blessings; our motive is love for God and people which God sends into your life.There are three main types of believers: observers, consumers/users and servants. What type of a believer are you? What are you: an observer, a user or a servant? Today we will attempt to establish what distinguishes observers and consumers from servants.

    «..being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ» (Philippians, 1:6).Why was Paul so confident that the Lord will complete the good work He has begun in the lives of believers? If you pay careful attention to the context, you will see that his confidence is based upon the attitude of these people towards the work of God.In the beginning of his letter Paul said that these people had been preaching the Gospel from the very beginning of their walk with God.
